Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 ml strong brewed coffee
- 200 g dairy-free butter
- 150 g powdered sugar
- 200 g dairy-free condensed milk
- 200 ml coconut cream
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 250 g Maria biscuits (dairy-free)
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder
Instructions
Prepare a strong cup of coffee and allow it to cool to room temperature.
In a medium bowl, beat the dairy-free butter with the powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the dairy-free condensed milk to the butter mixture and beat until well combined.
Scoop the thickened part of the coconut cream from the can, discarding the liquid, and add it to the mixture. Add in the vanilla extract and continue to beat until smooth and creamy.
Submerge each Maria biscuit briefly in the cooled coffee and create a single layer on a serving platter to form the base of the cake.
Spread a portion of the cream mixture over the biscuit layer, smoothing it evenly.
Repeat the biscuit soaking and cream layering process until cookies and cream have been used, finishing with a layer of cream on top.
Sprinkle the top with cocoa powder for decoration.
Refrigerate the cake for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow it to set and the flavors to meld.
Slice and serve cold. Enjoy your dairy-free Bolo de Bolacha!
